Hey my lovely ninjas! Here's chapter 3! Enjoy!

This idea belongs to NinjagoZ, I just wrote it.

I do not own Ninjago, if I did I would be married to Zane on the show. :D

Zane's POV

I would not even dare to try and fall asleep down here. I need to get out soon, the toxic puddles are approximately 2.3 feet away from me.

As I did a once-over at my prison, I noticed that the walls are made of the same rocks that Cole used when he made a bet to see who can climb a mountain the fastest. Of course he won, but I remember using my shurikens to help me climb.

That's it.

I quickly stood up, ignoring the searing pain in my back and stabbed one of the two golden shurikens I had into the rock.

I got out my second one and jabbed it higher that the first one. I yanked the first one out of the rock and stabbed into the rocks higher, I kept doing this over and over. The pain in my back is overwhelming, but I am making progress towards the top.

About a meter from my freedom, I felt the rocks give way under my left shuriken. It slipped and now I'm hanging for dear life.

Quickly, I swing my body gaining momentum and latched onto a rock that's sticking out from the rest, like a rock climbing wall.

I make sure to get a good grip and take my right shuriken and stab it onto the surface, and I slowly pull myself up.

I use up all of my strength and hoist myself out of the crevice, landing hard on my back panting.

I lay there trying to regain myself for an hour and a half.

My breathing slowly returns to normal and I sit up shakily. I feel as if Kai shot me with a fireball, my back and arms are aching. Pain is everywhere.

I attempt to ignore it and slowly stand up.

It's pitch black. What time is it?

I check my internal clock and it seems to be 2:33 A.M. That means it took me 5 hours to climb up.

I start limping my way towards the downhill walkway. I use the night vision that Jay recently helped me install and found my way down. I stopped every few seconds to lean on boulders and help me regain my strength to take a few more steps, only to stop again.

I finally reached the base of the mountain, the time is now 3:13 A.M., not bad for an injured nindroid I suppose.

I'm so thirsty and my body is begging me to stop taking more steps, but I deny it's desperate pleads.

I limp my way through Ninjago's trails and I finally reach the docks. I never noticed how beautiful the city looked at night.

I see the Bounty and grab onto the anchor, slowly climbing up.

I reach the top and fall onto the deck. Oops.

The alarm went off and I quickly stood up, waiting for my family to come running out.

In a matter of seconds I see Cole, Kai, Jay, Nya, Lloyd, and Sensei run onto the deck. Their body language tells me that they are, what they say 'frozen with fear'.

I saw Nya run back inside.

Nya's POV

I cried myself to sleep that night, poor Zane.

I awoke to the alarm, I ran to the brig and told everyone that there was an intruder.

We all ran out onto the deck with our weapons and saw what made my eyes fill up with tears again, but I was terrified.

I ran back inside and down to the basement where Zane's body was being kept until the burial tonight. The body was still there.

He's an imposter.

Zane's POV

Everyone stood in silence until Nya came running back outside yelling, "He's an imposter! Zane's body is still in the basement!" Oh no.

"It is me! I promise! Please believe me!" I was practically begging for them to believe me, my throat was burning but I couldn't let that stop me from proving to them that I am the real me.

"Why should we, 'Zane'?" Jay added in those fake finger quotations when he said my name.

This won't be easy.

Ehh, not my favorite chapter. What do you think? Good? Bad? Love it? Hate it?

Stay tuned for the next chapter! Have a nice day!(:
